Okay this is terribly sad, but I have a German Shepherd and this dog would return to the same place every day for a chicken foot.

(Seriously though, never get a German Shepherd if you don't like the idea of a 70-90 lb dog following you everywhere you go, including the bathroom, he makes sure to lay down behind my feet while I'm cooking and if I leave him in the backyard for 5 minutes to go to the bathroom he is just sitting at the door staring in when I return.)

I cried like a baby when I first saw that episode. Then I cried like a baby months later when I watch it as a re-run. And then again. In fact I'm a bit teary just thinking about. And I don't even like dogs all that much!

Dogs are not very loyal, at all. I could remove your so called loyal dog from your home, feed it, walk it, give it the same amount of attention as you do and it would simply forget about you. My daughter has a dog that belong to her Aunt for over 10 years. Now when that same Aunt comes to vist the dog wants nothing to do with her because she no longer cares for it.

When my grandfather used to visit us growing up, our family dog would latch on to him from the moment he pulled into the driveway until the moment he left (while completely ignoring grandma, ha!). They lived out of state, and would only visit about once a year, for a long weekend. Dogs do remember people, and they do care about people even when they haven't seen them for a long time.

cmunic8r99:Lost my GSD in 2010, but had I died first, he'd probably have done the same as the dog in TFA.

Damn, I miss Coal..

What a handsome dog! My GSD is lovely and loyal -- and getting on in years. She had a bout of vestibular disease recently, and I was reminded that after 10 years, I'm not going to get to keep her much longer. Every day with a GSD is a blessing.

Yeah, that's exactly what's happening in those videos of dogs going batshiat with glee when their deployed humans come home after months/years/etc. 1/10, zzzzz.

Of course they remember people but that doesn't mean I cannot take a dog from an owner and make it just as loyal to me. My daughtes dog will ignore her at times to spend time with me because I also feed him, walk him, play with him and take him out to pee. He has even snapped at her more than once when she went to give me a hug. I know it is a huge insult for me to state I could take your loyal dog away and make it loyal to me but the bottom line is it is done all the time.

We have a rescue dog, our trainer says Kelpie mix. Great girl, hyper and VERY vocal but awesome. She hears my son cry she's right there. Big snuggler. It took us awhile to work up to getting another dog after he was attacked by one but we found a great one. Wouldn't trade her for anything.

Yeh. Maybe her Aunt is considered a food machine because she's a biatch. Would fit familial characteristics.

Okay on the off chance that you aren't trolling I have to tell you this:

Your dog might not like your daughter because of how she treats him. Most dogs do not like hugs. Dogs will politely *tolerate* being hugged by people the like. Some dogs will not tolerate any hugs. IF dogs could talk, they would say "hey dude I feel really uncomfortable when you hug me like you might strangle me so could you please just pat my chest instead! and stop patting my head!". I strongly encourage you to learn about dog body language and things that dogs don't like before your dog gets tired of being terrified and bites instead of snapping.

/I am sure that some dogs actually do like hugs. But most don't and would choose to receive your affection in another way.
